Just bought an old kayak and I'm looking to go crabbing.

What are the best traps for use on a kayak? Also if anyone has any used traps lying around they want to sell/ have out of the way, I'm in the market.

Thanks,

Jack

I feel that Promar has a great selection of different Crab Traps. If you are looking for traps that are easy to store on and off the kayaks check them out.

Ya know, not to sound unhelpful or anything, but there's a LOT of info on this site that's easily located using the handy-dandy "Search" button. All it takes is a little effort. Took me all of 10 seconds to find Chuck E's excellent article on crabbing from your kayak. Which is also linked on the home page, I might add. Just sayin...
